By Harsh K. Gupta

A workshop on precipitated Seismicity used to be equipped through the twenty seventh normal meeting of the overseas organization of Seismology and Physics of Earth's inside (IASPEI) in Wellington, New Zealand in the course of January 10-21, 1994. This quantity offers a set of sixteen papers permitted for book which collected from this workshop. the 1st 3 papers tackle mining job regarding brought on seismicity.

Globally, the Koyna dam developing Shivajisagar Lake in Maharashtra, India, remains to be the main major web site of reservoir-induced earthquakes. With the rise within the variety of situations of caused seismicity, there's a becoming challenge between planners, engineers, geophysicists and geologists to appreciate the surroundings conducive to this phenomenon. whereas the adjustments in pore-fluid strain were pointed out because the key think about inducing earthquakes, the phenomenon itself remains to be poorly understood. This truth hence makes the learn of the prompted seismicity vitally important and this quantity timely.
